About this Product
This purple beret with a black beaded bow is for someone who wants a cute vintage style flair.
Beautiful and adorable! This is a 1950s style beret made from velour fur felt in a gorgeous royal purple color.
A beret, but very different from the floppy hats most people think of when they think of berets. It is a structured beret, and it can be worn in multiple ways. Photos 1-3 show it tilted to the side. Photos 4 & 5 show it worn to the back of the head like a pillbox.
♦ FIT: ♦ One size fits all. Can be worn in multiple ways. Just move it around until you find where it looks best and feels comfortable for you.
For no added cost I am happy to add your choice of elastic (worn under the hair) or a hair comb to be an optional securing method. Leave a note with checkout.
Silverhill Creative
Meet the Maker
Silverhill Creative Millinery is a one-woman millinery studio located in Vermont.
Hi, I'm Kristin Silverman — the designer and owner behind Silverhill Creative Millinery.
Since establishing Silverhill Creative Millinery in late 2012, I have sold my hats to customers across the United States, and to Canada, Israel, the UK, Australia, Norway, and Hong Kong.
Primarily self-taught, I have also learned from renowned international millinery instructors at Millinery Meet-Up and online at Hat Academy.
I work out of my studio in Vermont, creating one-of-a-kind hats and headpieces completely by hand, using traditional millinery techniques.
Silverhill Creative specializes in unique and artistic hats in everyday, easily wearable shapes, such as fedoras, berets and cloches. Hats sold in the online shop are in stock and ready to ship.
My hats have long featured hand embroidery and beading. In 2024, I will also be offering embroidery and bead art as standalone art pieces not on hats.
How it’s Made
♦ CONTENT and CONSTRUCTION: ♦ 100% fur felt with a velour finish (similar to velvet). Hand blocked on a wood beret-shape block. Adorned with a black fur felt bow, with lavender seed beads in a woven picot edge. Inner edge is bordered with purple grosgrain (petersham) ribbon.
♦ THE STUDIO: ♦ This is a one of a kind hat, designed and created exclusively by me for Silverhill Creative Millinery. 100% hand made in my Vermont millinery studio. All hats are made using traditional, couture millinery techniques (i.e. hand-sewn, no glue used ever, etc.).
